MAGA: Multi-Platform Self-Fusion of GUI Agents via Structured Action Distillation
Graphical user interface (GUI) agents based on large language models are increasingly deployed across mobile, web, and desktop environments. However, existing agents are typically domain-specific, limiting the deployment and user experience. This motivates the consolidation of specialized models into a single cross-environment policy. Weight merging directly merges domain-specific experts but can corrupt executable actions under expert disagreement, while on-policy distillation (OPD) avoids conflicting teacher supervision yet still treats all response tokens equally during distillation, ignoring that action tokens are the only interface between the environment and the agent. To address this, We introduce MAGA that re-allocates training signal according to the structured action. Based on the correctness of the generated action, it suppresses unnecessary or invalid distillation signals and focuses learning on erroneous actions. Besides, a training-only hint optimizes the supervision signal provided by domain-specific teachers without changing the student input. Across two model scales, MAGA achieves the highest mean success rate, outperforming the strongest baseline by 2.0% at 8B and achieves almost the same average performance with teachers.
CRL-VLA: Continual Vision-Language-Action Learning
Lifelong learning is critical for embodied agents in open-world environments, where reinforcement learning fine-tuning has emerged as an important paradigm to enable Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models to master dexterous manipulation through environmental interaction. Thus, Continual Reinforcement Learning (CRL) is a promising pathway for deploying VLA models in lifelong robotic scenarios, yet balancing stability (retaining old skills) and plasticity (learning new ones) remains a formidable challenge for existing methods. We introduce CRL-VLA, a framework for continual post-training of VLA models with rigorous theoretical bounds. We derive a unified performance bound linking the stability-plasticity trade-off to goal-conditioned advantage magnitude, scaled by policy divergence. CRL-VLA resolves this dilemma via asymmetric regulation: constraining advantage magnitudes on prior tasks while enabling controlled growth on new tasks. This is realized through a simple but effective dual-critic architecture with novel Goal-Conditioned Value Formulation (GCVF), where a frozen critic anchors semantic consistency and a trainable estimator drives adaptation. Experiments on the LIBERO benchmark demonstrate that CRL-VLA effectively harmonizes these conflicting objectives, outperforming baselines in both anti-forgetting and forward adaptation.
